Saute buter and next 4 ingredients until tender. Add chicken broth, diced tomatoes, Worcestershire, cayenne pepper, cumin, heavy cream, flour paste, corn, salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until corn is tender. Take 1 cup of mixture and puree in a food processor, then add back to soup. Drain potatoes and add to soup, cooking until softened but not mushy. Then fold in crab and shrimp. Continue cooking chowder until shrimp are cooked. Use low heat, stirring constantly.
